Abstract
This paper discusses the use of simulation for both planning and control of aerospace manufacturing through work-instruction level models. The approach uses detailed models, pre-validated alternative process plans and use of continuously updated simulation models which have the capability for providing control instructions when expected performance is not realized. The initialized model can also be used in an off-line mode for further planning.
